But an excellent beginning. After an initial burst of singing, accompanied by the chirping of birds outside Alec's house, and the chirping of Adam's ghostly smoke detector, we ponder the possibility of pay-per-level gaming. In the brief moments when Jim is allowed to talk, he mutters about Legend Of Grimlock, and Dungeon Master. And Adam is scared of walls.

Jim reveals that Gunpoint is tough and unforgiving, and frantically clicks his mouse throughout, Adam celebrates Darksiders 2, and Alec chats about Rayman: Oranges. Adam then reveals that he's crap at games, after acknowledging he rarely finishes them. The rest of us reconsider our hiring protocols. And if you listen carefully at 22:22, you can hear that one of us is apparently working in a shop.]]>27:06noThe Rock, Paper, Shotcast Episode 2: TeaBossTue, 27 Mar 2012 14:53:54 +0000Assembling for the second ever Shotcast are these reprobates:

What games have we been playing for that week? How brilliant is Tim Stone? Why is Jim so racist against cat people?]]>51:25yesrock,paper,shotgunThe Rock Paper Shotgun Electronic Wireless Show 50: E3 2011Thu, 09 Jun 2011 05:53:12 +0000John and guest Dan chat about everything they've seen at E3 so far. in a very noisy restaurant.]]>57:14noThe RPS Electronic Wireless Show #49: WinkiesMon, 07 Feb 2011 19:05:00 +0000John takes to the stage at World of Love to talk to Zombie Cow, Oddbob and Charlie's Games about independent development and genitals. They make a game. They say rude words. They say awfully nice things about RPS. It's a good time.

But the sound quality's pretty lousy because it was recorded by Alec waving a little dictaphone around. You've been warned.

As mentioned was in Revelation (22.4: And they shall talk rubbish and creak their chairs until Babylon rises and falls).

And only Rage. Honestly, when I set this up I presumed those guys would want to ask a bunch of stuff about Doom and Quake and Wolfenstein and Commander Keen. But nooooooooooooooo, they only wanted to know about the shiny new thing. FINE. You know what? FINE.

Here you are. Here's your podcast. Due to me being essentially incompetent it starts about 30 seconds into proceedings - really sorry about that. Wireless Show business as usual (i.e. introductions and muttery British games journalists) will return whenever the next episode is.

Special guest show! Many special guests! Primarily, Splash Damage's Senior Game Designer Ed Stern, who's behind most of the words and a whole lot of other things in Brink.

Secondarily but no less importantly, a cartel of RPS readers who attended the recent Eurogamer Expo, at which this chat was held. They had questions. They asked them. Ed answered. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. Many Bothans died.

RPS' Alec Meer, Quintin Smith and Karen Gillan or someone were also in attendance, chiming in with matters relevant or just plain rude.

Can it really have been so long? It seems so. Jim and John gather once more to discuss matters of gaming, philosophy, and quite how tired everyone is. We're all so tired. Enjoy John's croaky voice, Jim's pretty hair, and thoughts on shooters, Macs and the lack of gossiping murderer-based games.

So we casually chat about the events of the past, the games we've been playing, and our plans for a national RPS holiday.

Naturally this means we discuss local alcoholics, uses for Lara Croft's legs, and the magic of free things. There's Max Payne nonsense, our interest in the new Tomb Raider, and questions on whether Portal was designed to look like a Mac. Then John reveals his balanced, reasoned position on Mac users.

We consider Mass Effect 2, now Jim's playing it, which naturally takes us on to the nature of how philosophy is written. We wonder in which direction the FPS could head next. Then say goodbye to half our listeners.

Bob Came In Pieces DLC and the excellent new Sam & Max episode are spoken of. Then Jim outlines plans for more RPS community games. We wonder at how little corruption we perform, what our favourite fascist superheroes would be like, and why Tidying Up Games are the best of all games. And why Terry Wogan should be a voice actor in every game.
